Nitinol Laser Cut Hypotubes for Medical Device Development

By Chamfr Team
February 27, 2025

We’re expanding our laser cut hypotube selection with the addition of our newest supplier Sublime Laser’s nitinol options. While we’ve previously offered stainless steel laser cut hypotubes, this new addition brings the flexibility of nitinol, providing engineers with more material choices to optimize their prototypes. These high-quality nitinol laser cut hypotubes are perfect for testing different cut patterns and assessing performance, helping you refine your designs quickly and efficiently.

Why Choose Nitinol Laser Cut Hypotubes?

Nitinol, renowned for its shape memory and super-elasticity, is an excellent material for medical device applications requiring both flexibility and strength. Laser cut nitinol hypotubes allow engineers to evaluate how various cut patterns affect tube performance, helping to optimize designs before final production. Unlike stainless steel, nitinol’s super-elastic properties make it a preferred choice for devices that need to flex, expand, and return to their original shape.

Choose from stainless steel and nitinol:  

  • Stainless steel is a reliable, durable choice for more designs that need strength and stability.
  • Nitinol is your go-to for flexibility and shape memory, perfect for applications that need to move and adapt, like self-expanding stents or flexible guidewires.

No matter the requirement, Chamfr offers a wide assortment of materials, sizes, cut patterns so you can get exactly what you need for your project!
